PCF has found that it has been necessary to provide a daily hot meal for most weeks of the year to its school children. Many of the children have stopped working to come to PCF's schools and often the only hot meal they will receive each day is in school. Our menus have been designed to include a high protein diet and fresh vegetables and fruit are provided as a natural source of vital vitamins and minerals. Children who are suffering from vitamin deficiency are given vitamin supplements and Vitamin A as standard. Our focus is to teach and cultivate healthy eating habits. PCF provides a well equipped medical clinic in Helping and Navotas. In each of these our nurses run free medical clinics every day for our school children, parents, and the community.
